German Pilsner

German Pilsner is a type of lager beer that originated in the Czech city of Pilsen in the 19th century but has been embraced and refined by Germany. It is known for its crisp, clean taste and light golden color, often with a slightly bitter finish from Saaz hops. German Pilsners typically have a moderate alcohol content and a refreshing, effervescent quality. They are characterized by their smooth malt sweetness balanced by herbal and floral hop notes, making them very drinkable and popular worldwide, especially in warm weather or casual settings.
